roval aluminium

roval aluminium, which is part of the internationally operating

reynaers Group, is a leading specialist in aluminium construction

products that are used in residential and utility constructions, both in

new constructions and in renovations. The diversified range of products

includes architectural roof edges, high-quality wall coping systems,

weather cornices and weatherings, slatwalls and special custom-design

options. roval aluminium is the market leader in its area of expertise.

as an innovative partner, roval aluminium is always in search of

solutions with high practical and aesthetic value. This is usually carried

out working together with architects, project offices and customers.

We find solutions that translate into better and more elegant finishes.

roval aluminium has its own Design and Production departments, with

fully CnC-controlled machinery. as a result, roval aluminium is perfectly

equipped to offer custom-design products.

This is translated into a wide diversity of wall coping systems and fascia

boards. all products are available in brute, anodized and enamelled

finishes, in all available ral colours. roval aluminium is closely involved

in product development, work planning and project monitoring.

IFD, DUBO anD VIBa cOnstrUctIOn

roval aluminium endorses the basic premises and philosophy of IFD,

Dubo and vIBa construction, and has excellent solutions available for

all situations that could occur. For roval aluminium, IFD construction

means the innovative use of industrially developed and manufactured

construction components in new buildings, buildings that require

renovation and utility buildings.

Flexibility and the ability to dismantle parts of the structures make it

possible for different users to use the same building for a longer period.

Durability is one of the spearheads in roval aluminium’s management

policy. In IFD construction, for example, the amount of building and

demolition waste is substantially reduced. In this way, building according

to IFD principles combines both the environmental and economic

requirements in the construction sector. The philosophy behind

sustainable construction is that any damage to the environment is

limited as much as possible while building, using and demolishing

both new and existing buildings. In the meantime, a special review

committee has accepted roval aluminium as an SvE/viba Expo

participant. The SvE (previously known as the viba Expo Foundation)

was founded 25 years ago, and, in the meantime, has expanded into

a national knowledge platform in the area of healthy and sustainable

construction.

GUarantEED

roval aluminium guarantees the quality of its façade and roof products,

and supplies products that comply with the highest requirements. This is

reflected in the KoMo attestation with Product Certificate no. 10.078.

This quality declaration relates to the technical specifications, and refers

to performance relating to the relevant aspects that have been assessed,

such as durability and resistance to wear and tear, and lays down

regulations with regard to the manufacture and installation of the

products.

The KoMo attestation is recognized by the government, and is

applicable to aluminium products that have been treated via anodizing

(Qualanod) and powder coating (Qualicoat), with the treatment

constituting an integral part of the quality declaration. an independent

authority, such as SKG, carries out audits on the basis of regular

inspections to demonstrate that the manufactured products comply

with the Brl 2701 (national assessment Guideline) according to

art. 1.4 of the Buildings Decree.

The General Terms and Conditions that have been deposited at the

Chamber of Commerce in Eindhoven under number 1508/93 apply to

all transactions. Information about roval aluminium can be found in

the nBD building documentation, the STaBU specification system,

on the construction CD, on www.nbdonline.nl, in the aSD library, the

‘zoeksnoek’ search engine and on the Internet (www.roval.nl).

anODIzInG

one of the main quality features of roval aluminium is the product

treatment, such as anodizing and enamelling. During the anodizing

process, an oxide layer is applied through electrolysis. This takes place

following the vMrG quality requirements and 2007 recommendations,

or the applicable Qualanod or GSB regulations, and is mainly applied

clear (natural). a limited number of colours is also possible. In this case,

the fact that that some colour differences could occur during the

aluminium anodizing process must be taken into account.

EnamEllInG

aluminium enamelling is carried out on the basis of powder coating.

This takes place according to the vMrG quality requirements and 2007

recommendations, or the applicable Qualicoat or GSB regulations.

The required enamel layer thickness depends on the conditions at the

location where the application will take place. 60 micron is used as

standard. Enamelling can be carried out in practically any colour.

ral colours are preferred however, due to the advantageous prices

and short delivery times. a wide range of enamelled roof edges can

be delivered from stock.

spEcIalIsts

one of the characteristic features of roval aluminium quality is a team

of enthusiastic and highly-qualified professionals. These are specialists

with a sound project management and technical know-how, on whom

our partners in the construction sectors can rely at all times. For our

experts, quality is both the starting point and the end result.

Freedom of Design

InspIrInG rEsUlts

as the widespread use of aluminium in architecture is still a recent

development, many pleasant surprises can still be expected from the

seemingly unlimited possibilities offered by aluminium. Especially for the

architect, to whom aluminium provides a maximum of design freedom.

Shape, flexibility, colour, combinations with other materials, durability ...

all these are distinguishing features that often lead to inspiring results.

The design potential of aluminium is unprecedented.

UnlImItED pOssIBIlItIEs

The practical implementation of the concepts and designs created by the

architect is, of course, a great challenge. It is exactly in this context that

the use of aluminium has proved to be particularly popular over the last

few years as an aesthetic construction product.

UnlImItED pOssIBIlItIEs

This is, however, only possible with the backup of a partner who is able

to convert the vision of the architect into high-quality applications with

a high aesthetic value. In this respect, roval aluminium is a pioneer in

the area of aesthetic custom-design.

We think in terms of possibilities, not limitations. The architect’s vision is,

by definition, interesting. The most complex design challenges lead to a

maximum of creativity, and, as a result, to very special aesthetic solutions

and applications. This is therefore a two-way process. roval aluminium

is perfectly equipped to provide custom-design. The architect’s vision

becomes a roval aluminium product.

Thanks to our CnC-controlled machinery, we can design and produce

wall coping systems, fascia boards, column linings, reveal finishes and

other customized aluminium products entirely according to the

instructions of the architect. Furthermore, in the same way as the

architect provides inspiration for roval aluminium, the applications and

solutions created by roval aluminium are also often the source of new

architectural designs. Inspiration leading to more inspiration. In the end,

this results in custom-design products that exceed the standard.

natural Design

thE natUral appEarancE OF alUmInIUm

as a relatively new material, aluminium has now made its definitive

appearance in architectural design. Whereas aluminium was mainly used

as a practical material in the past, its use for aesthetic purposes has

become increasingly popular over the last few years. not only is the

material light, less sensitive to corrosion and completely recyclable, but

it is also increasingly used for its aesthetic qualities. as a matter of

course, modern architects have therefore adopted aluminium as a

‘top of mind’ material, which appears more and more often in their

design processes.

What makes aluminium so special is the fact that it has a natural

appearance, even though it is not a natural product – it is created from

natural products. a combination of matt and shiny finishes provides

depth and colour to a project; a reflection of nature. The possibilities

of creating nuances give a building a distinctive appearance.

natUral alUmInIUm

after oxygen and silicon, aluminium is the most abundant element on

Earth. about eight percent of the earth crust consists of bauxite, or

aluminium ore. In a time in which the environment and sustainability

require our constant attention, aluminium is therefore a natural choice,

quite apart from its aesthetic aspects and unlimited possibilities.

although the production of new aluminium is quite energy-intensive,

its recyclability and durability make it the pre-eminent product for now

and for the future.

Sustainability

sUstaInaBIlIty Is part OF thE cOmpany

phIlOsOphy

Sustainability comes in many shapes. This is certainly the case for

roval aluminium, who endorse the philosophy of IFD construction.

But sustainability also involves the durability of the aesthetic added-value

that aluminium provides to a project. as a corrosion-resistant material,

aluminium is extremely suitable for this purpose. In addition, due to

the fact that aluminium is 100% recyclable, it can be considered as

a sustainable material. roval aluminium also develops innovative

applications that enable the durability of materials and buildings to

be increased. a good example of this is the patented cleat system.

clEat systEm prOVIDInG DUraBIlIty

roval aluminium has developed a unique, patented cleat system for

the fixation of wall coping systems. The special stainless steel ‘click’

spring fitted into the system enables easy installation and dismantling.

The pre-mounted EPDM sealing tape prevents water from entering into

the system, and avoids streaks caused by dampness. Moreover, the tape

also forms an excellent buffer.

sErVIcE lIFE

In addition to the aesthetic aspect, wall coping systems applied as roof

edge finishes also ensure a longer service life for the complete roof.

The fixation cleat itself also ensures that the wall coping system is more

durable, and that the system is reusable. The fixation cleat keeps the

wall coping taut and smooth, thereby enhancing the appearance of

the building over the long term. roval aluminium offers a selection of

various models in all ral colours, the quality of which is assured by the

KoMo attestation with Product Certificate. The clever fixation cleat is

one of the reasons why roval aluminium wall coping systems are

particularly suitable for both residential and utility buildings.

Products

This section of the brochure provides an overview of roval aluminium’s

architectural products and their applications. The possibilities offered

to architects are numerous, not only as a result of the wide range of

products, but also due to the custom-design options. The possibilities

of wall coping systems are limitless, especially where the architect is to

be given the maximum design freedom. In addition, the solid technical

basis behind the aluminium construction products of roval aluminium

is at a level that distinguishes them from other products. This booklet

provides an overview of all aluminium construction products; these

products are characterised by their quality, durability and aesthetic

appearance.

Custom-design in aluminium

sUrpassInG thE stanDarD

Many areas in the construction sector require custom profiling.

Standard ranges do not always provide a suitable solution. In these

cases, the custom-design service of roval aluminium could provide the

answer. roval aluminium is able to comply with practically all design

requirements in this area. It goes without saying that processes such as

drilling, punching, welding and notching can be carried out on these

custom-design products.

mODEllInG accOrDInG tO tastE

In addition to wall coping systems, our state-of-the-art Production

Department also models and manufactures reveal finishes, fascia boards

and other custom-design products completely according to the desired

specifications. Quality with a sustainable character also applies to these

products. The aesthetic features of aluminium are particularly reflected in

fascia boards, column linings, balusters and reveals. The application of

aluminium always ensures an elegant finish. Fascia boards are, in fact,

wall coping systems with an extended front. This front in particular

creates a specific, distinguishing appearance. roval aluminium is able to

deliver fascia boards, reveals, balusters and column lining in any specified

dimensions and in various shapes. an additional advantage of using

aluminium in this context is the fact that only minimum maintenance will

be required, in comparison to other types of materials such as wood.

roval aluminium wall coping systems are of a very high quality.

In addition to this, they ensure a particularly elegant finish. Functionality

and an elegant design truly go hand in hand. The possibilities with

regard to wall coping systems are practically limitless. They can be

applied in the area for which they were originally intended: the covering

and elegant finish of walls. In addition, however, wall coping systems are

increasingly used as roof edge finishing. on the one hand, wall coping

systems can give a building a modern and contemporary appearance,

while on the other hand they can also allow a step back in time by

creating a retro-look with crow-step gables.

Cleat system

hIGh aEsthEtIc qUalIty

a patented cleat system has been developed for the fixation of wall

coping systems. This is a unique system characterised by its easy

application and high aesthetic quality. The wall coping covers ensure a

high, aesthetic quality due to the smooth and taut result, thanks to the

innovative cleat system. The EPDM sealing tape prevents water from

entering the system, which has a positive impact on its durability.

as a result, the cleat system makes a positive contribution to the overall

appearance of the building.

Important components of a quality wall coping system are the draining

fixation cleats and an expansion connection. as standard, they are

designed with slotted holes for a correct fixation.

In combination with the stainless steel spring, the fixation cleat ensures

a maximum result in terms of aesthetics and speed of fitting. This cleat

is applied as standard to all types of wall coping systems with a rear side

of 50 mm.

The distance between the fixation cleats depends on the construction

height and profile width, but is limited to a maximum of 750 mm.

They must be fitted with stainless steel screws.

With regard to expansion, bear in mind that aluminium expands by

approx. 1 mm per metre length.

29

DElIVEry prOGrammE

aluminium is playing an increasingly important role in the realisation of

building projects and renovation projects. This increased interest has

resulted from the necessity to improve building quality. at the same

time, the application of aluminium leads to a substantial reduction in

maintenance costs, and to an extension of the service life that appeals

to the imagination.
